Hotels With Bars in Penang, Malaysia

Bayview Hotel Georgetown Penang is a well-located, value-packed option with a standout rooftop dining experience—best suited for those who can overlook its dated look and occasional service hiccups. If you prioritize convenience, ambience, and space without needing modern finishes, it’s a solid choice..

I read reviews about this hotel before I booked and IT IS TRUE! The room is basically having ants, cockroach and the bedsheets are dirty!!! Oh mine. Please get a more responsible Manager to check the cleanliness of the room before handover to guests. I do not want to blame your housekeeping coz I see him working alone everyday… Tray broken also can leave it there for the customer to see 😐 although it was meant to put your cups, kettle and your Cups are also dirty 🫩

Our first time visiting Penang, was greeted warmly by the staffs of The Granite Luxury Hotel. love the space by lobby,didn't feel overwhelmed by crowd n nice area for photo taking. Room is comfortable n clean with adequate toiletries in bathroom. My only issue is the Wi-Fi don't seems to work as well and the rooftop bar look sad n too warm to sit out. Generally a conveniently located hotel that's walking distance to lots to do and eat

Had always been contemplating whether or not to try G Hotel Kelawai. Bit the bullet and here's my review; Room is spacious and comfortable, bed is top notch. Free minibar (replenished daily) is a plus. Swimming pool is nice although a bit shallow, and Gravity is a nice place to chill at night with view overlooking the island and Bukit Bendera. Is it worth the money? Yes. Location? Perfect. It'd be hard to find another hotel in Penang that checks all my boxes, and this could be it.

I had a wonderful stay at PARKROYAL Penang Resort with my family. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and they really went the extra mile to make our stay special. Thank you so much for the lovely birthday cake and for fulfilling all my requests – it truly made the experience memorable. The room was clean, comfortable, and spacious with a nice view. Facilities like the pool and kids’ activities were great, and the beach was just a short walk away. Breakfast had a wide variety of options and everything was fresh and tasty. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable trip. I really appreciate the thoughtful service and would highly recommend this resort for families or anyone looking for a beach getaway in Penang.

We booked two rooms and had an outstanding experience at this hotel. Although both rooms were the same type (21m²), Room 1615 felt more spacious than Room 1609. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the night street food market on Lebuh Presgrave, 12 minutes to Cecil Market, and 8 minutes to the 24-hour McDonald's at Birch House. There’s also a hidden bar, Good Friend Club, less than 100 meters from the hotel entrance, and another one, Magazine 63, about 10 minutes away, across from 1st Avenue Mall. Just 2 minutes away is GAMA Supermarket, which includes a small pharmacy and bakery—very convenient for anything you need. 5 min away from Komtar also. Opposite hotel is the Hin Bus Depot. The rooms were clean and the air conditioning worked well. However, the bathroom exhaust fan was quite loud (though manageable if turned off after use), and the room lighting was a bit dim—adding a floor or table lamp would be helpful. The water heater took about 3 minutes to produce hot water, which could be improved to reduce water waste. Soundproofing wasn’t the best, as I could hear the neighboring shower, but it wasn’t a major issue for me. The hotel has a gym and swimming pool @ roof top level-25, though we didn’t have time to use them. The facilities well-maintained. Overall, we had a great stay. The staff and security were friendly and welcoming. Keep up the great work and continue maintaining the cleanliness and service standards! This hotel tends to get fully booked quickly. If you want to book this Hotel, please plan and book early Will stay again when I go Penang next time.

The hotel is located at the beach front and near to the main road. It is accessible to town and Gurney. There is a food court in a walking distance which you can find all the local dishes there, such as satay, peanut pancakes, bak kut teh, prawn noodles, curry noodles, Indian Apom balik etc. The hotel room is spacious and neat . It provides organic herbal body wash, hair shampoo,hair conditioner and hand liquids . The gym has nice see view. There is a beach pub where you have drink there. The swimming pool is kids friendly and there is a kids club where they can play at there. This hotel suits young kids and teens . We will come back again for the sixth time.

Location is really good. About 15 minutes walk from the ferry. Lebuh Kimberley is just opposite the hotel down the road with heaps of food choices and shopping. You can also walk to Komtar bus station to take the local bus to Penang hill. Hotel is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. They won't allow early check-in, but they are happy to store your bags for early arrivals.

Location is easily accessible, with close proximity to food/services/attractions. Nearby shopping mall have plenty of different food choices, a convenient stall less than 100m away to the right of the hotel when you come out. For local food fare, plenty of choices around. Kedai Kopi Bee Hong serve a good kaya and butter toast for breakfast. If you are lazy, the hotel breakfast buffet is also a top choice for an affordable price(add on RM36) from 6-10.30am. Hotel have tidbits like popcorn and complimentary self serve drinks(ice lemon detox water and assam water) at the side for you to quench your thirst and have some small bites while waiting for check-in. Recommended for budget of around SGD80-100 range per night.

This is my favourite hotel in Penang. Second time I'm coming here. I really love the vibes, environment n everything about this hotel. As my birthday celebration, the hotel had upgraded my booking to a deluxe room. I appreciate the compliments from the hotel and team. For sure I'll be coming for the next.
